Further Narrowing #7
Do you know the date range for which responsive records actually exist? Narrow again so that there's no cost associated with processing this request, and that provide a better idea of how far I need to narrow.
Notes from public body: The date range for which records actually exist is the original date range. Did the applicant want to just ask for the most recent records which stop at or before 300 pages? We can likely do that, but, (page numbers are illustrative not actual) page 299 might not make any sense without pages 300-323 – we have not reviewed the records, just counted pages and dates. We could ensure that we have an inclusive record which ends up to the pages below the threshold. For example: an email and attachment that starts on page 277 and goes to page 285; not the following email and attachments which are from page 286 to 306.
Applicant’s Response: I'd like to take the public body's suggestion. I would like to ask for the most recent records which stop before or at 300 pages, and for the records to be inclusive (i.e. the department's example of an email and attachment that starts on page 277 and goes to page 285; not the following email and attachments which are from page 286 to 306.)
Notes from public body: The revised estimated page count is now 224 pages.
